La haine est un virus résistant On s’est rarement senti aussi peu d’atomes crochus avec le voisin états-unien. Reste que la frontière n’est pas étanche, spécialement dans les sphères poreuses du numérique, où la glissade revancharde de ce gouvernement MAGA (pour Make America Great Again), passé de chicanier à ouvertement guerrier, nous entraîne collectivement vers le bas. Pensez aux Obama en singes. Pensez à Gaza transformée en station balnéaire ou à la communauté somalienne qualifiée de « déchets ».

Mise en garde contre les contenus générés par l’IA sur les cultures autochtones Selon les experts, les dictionnaires en langues autochtones, les enseignements des aînés et les récits historiques générés par l’IA qui circulent en ligne pourraient nuire aux efforts de revitalisation culturelle et linguistique. L’intelligence artificielle générative permet de créer facilement et de manière convaincante du contenu. Les grands modèles linguistiques (LLM) comme ChatGPT sont entraînés sur d’énormes quantités de données et utilisent des conjectures prédictives pour générer une réponse. « Ces systèmes sont particulièrement susceptibles – compte tenu des ensembles de données limités disponibles pour de nombreuses langues autochtones – de produire… Apparaît sur: radio-canada.ca, Mots-clés: [‘propos offensant’, ‘fausses informations’] Recensé le 16 mars |

After 16 Straight Years in Power, Hungary’s Viktor Orbán Faces His Toughest Test Yet After 16 years under the illiberal regime of Viktor Orbán, the 2026 Hungarian election poses the most serious threat to his hold on power to date. The outcome of the election will determine whether Hungary can begin a return to democratic norms, reset its standing within the European Union, and weaken the resolve of global right-wing populism, of which Orbán is a central figure. In 1991, Hungary experienced a peaceful democratic transition, ending decades of authoritarian communist rule and ushering in a multi-party democracy. Yet despite Hungary’s democratic consolidation and… Apparaît sur: mironline.ca, Mots-clés: [‘freedom of press’, ‘activism’] Recensé le 17 mars |

Ontario steps back into the information dark ages Ontario’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA) was adopted almost 40 years ago. Everyone agrees it needs updating, both in terms of its privacy protections and the way it provides for access to information.

He was ferociously militant in the cause of Iranian democracy.
